The Real Time Clock (RTC) controller provides the real time and calendar message. The RTC
offers programmable time tick and alarm match interrupts. The data format of time and calendar
message are expressed in BCD format. A digital frequency compensation feature is available to
compensate external crystal oscillator frequency accuracy.
